I'd guess less than 1% are original recipes. Hell, you could argue there's no such thing.

Most of them are taken from elsewhere. Maybe the site owner tweaks the recipe, maybe they don't. In a lot of the ones I see, the narrative states they got the recipe from another site or cookbook.

The competition must be fierce....a few years ago you could search for a particular recipe and find it easily. Now almost EVERY recipe site is filled with 'content' that talks and talks and advertises and advertises for pages before you get to the recipe you were looking for.

I've seen the same recipe with a single ingredient added to removed on site after site. My way of cooking is to copy 2-3 versions of a recipe I want to try....that is my starting point and then I take it from there and create my own.

Thanks

Yeah, I pretty much know what I need to know about butter or whatever. Some of the commentary isn't needed. I just want to know how much butter or whatever I need versus the history of butter. Put the ingredients and recipe up top! I have a bunch of stuff I can't eat so it's frustrating having to do all that scrolling just to find out the recipe has ingredients I can't use.

As far as recipes, this isn't legal advice, but this site provides an explanation including a link to the actual copyright office rules. It says that a mere listing of ingredients or directions is not copyrightable. That's always been the rule but there have been lawsuits over it so you need to do your own checking, including perhaps talking to a intellectual property lawyer.

What is copyrightable is the commentary. Which is why there's so much of it I suppose.

Some of the best sites, IMHO, such as AllRecipes.com, gets most of its recipes from users who submit them.

Have to admit to laughing at some of the 'new recipes' people post on TikTok....

A few months ago all the blogs and social media were talking about the "TikTok feta recipe". "So simple and good" - well, simple was right.

The recipe called for a block of feta, cherry tomatoes, olive oil and pasta.

It was good once I adjusted it and added fresh basil, shaved parmesan, herbes de province, kalamata olives and Shrimp.

Today a blog referenced a 'great new TikTok recipe' for 'pizza eggs'...I'll pass.

I prefer Joshua wiseman and Guga foods/souis vide everything.

You get to see the equipment they use

And even the list of things you added to the pasta recipe was far more tasty sounding than the recipe.

First time I have heard of herbs de province. Looks like a good blend. I love fresh basil for the smell if fills a room with. Best air freshener in the world sauté onions and ad garlic and fresh basil near the end.

Ya, my assumption is that they are copying those recipes from somewhere and listing them on their website.No one can make up that many recipes on their own. Maybe they are taking them from a hard cook book and transferring it to their blogs. I was just curious if that was legal?

It's not really a legal issue; it's more of an ethical one.

"The law views a recipe merely as a factual list of ingredients and basic steps rather than as creative expression. The introductions, photography and design that accompany a recipe can be covered by a copyright, as can the cookbook as a whole, or a specific sequence of recipes."

Loved Granny's bisquits, asked for her recipe.

She started with two big handfuls of flower, scoop of lard, two pinches of baking soda and water. I asked how much water, she said, two mouthfuls.

I could never come close, I mean, what is a scoop of lard?

Change 1 ingredient, add 1 ingredient, or subtract 1 ingredient and it is all yours. And don't forget to add at the end "I like to serve this with a nice salad and crusty bread"

That spice blend is a 'go to' for me - for eggs, veggies, pasta, etc

I find most of the social media 'recipes' not very tempting - lot of talk but not a lot of flavor.

The amount of salt and sugar people eat. For the most part their taste buds are burnt out. Real flavor is hard to register after to much artificial flavor.

That it why tic Tom and social media recipes fail

The Food Network is notable player in the culinary world. The network, which was founded in 1993, has a cult-like following since it communicates with its audience across a variety of platforms, including the website, television, radio, magazines, and podcasts. The website has a huge collection of recipes and videos, as well as snippets and episodes from prior Food Network shows.

I think partly. Couple of recipes are taken from cookbooks, another part of the recipes is taken either from other websites or maybe on their own. You know, recipe is such a thing that it may be unique, because people can combine the ingredients whatever they like and maybe sometimes they can even cook better than it is described in a cook book.

Recipe websites are promoted and led by the chefs as far as I am concerned, or those ones who have chefs in friends. It's the most attractive model of such an online business. When you will develop this business you will be able to seel the recipes to the customers and it's quite beneficial, at least I hope.

Thanks

I think they do new new experiment with old recipes and make new recipe. Sometimes they add new ingredients and sometimes remove remain ingredients from old recipe.
